Focus Week
Applications of AdS/CFT to condensed matter systems
Nov 01, 2010 - Nov 05, 2010
Abstract
During the final week of the GGI program AdS4/CFT3 and the Holographic States of Matter, we aim to bring together experts from the string theory community as well as from the condensed matter physics community- in the latter case theoreticians and experimentalists - who are interested in applications of Holography to condensed matter systems.
Speakers include:
E. Fradkin, P. Phillips, T. Faulkner, S. J. Rey, K. Schalm, C. Bachas, S. Hartnoll. P. Kraus
